Authentic
Authentic is when you let go of the obvious — and go deeper, yet being yourself.
This may feel like it leads a life of its own. You don’t have full conscious control. Yet it’s you — more than ever.
Authentic is where art and leadership come from
when they’re good.
It’s where everything comes from
when it’s truly human.
Authentic is the result of Openness
with an Open door towards depth
and the person let’s you in
because you’re worth it
or should be.
It’s the deepest song.
It’s the most beautiful lady.
The most handsome man.
Really.

Authentic is when things happen that you cannot fake.
You can only let it happen
coming from nowhere
therefore from you
and it’s a deeper you.
You do things as if it’s the thousandth time
and the first
as if you’ve always done only this.
And maybe you did.
―
Authentic is when through breaking,
you become you — not knowing.
You just do.
You run behind yourself
and there you encounter yourself
because you’ve always been there.
You’re not the guy at the forefront
even when you’re bragging and boasting.
You’re the guy behind.
You’re the guy who suffers a bit
even smiling.
―
Authentic is things flowing
their way
and you recognize
because it’s timeless
like the universe.
In one motion all motions.
In one emotion all emotions.
In one blink of an eye — all that ever was
and all that ever has been done.
In one hand clapping — everything.
―
What you never thought
authentically, is here and now.
It’s before you.
It’s inside you.
It’s your shadow following you
as if you yourself are your shadow’s shadow
as well as the light.
―
You just stand here.
The sun goes down
making beautiful designs.
